Interesting all the talk this AM is about the pig comment. Things like this tend to stick - even though he may not have planned it...the perception of what he said will remain with many.

You can't make these gaff's at this point in the process - rookie mistake.

IMO, here is the deal. He was in Lebanon, VA when he made this comment. Residents of this portion of Southwest VA have been talking in this type of lingo for years. When I read about his visit in the local paper this morning, I viewed more as an attempt by Obama to try and connect with the people of the area as opposed to a cheap shot at Palin.

Yeah..no way he would be stupid enough to do this..it may energize the Palin haters - but he is going to get their votes anyway....and a comment like this is not going to sway the middle of the roaders.

He'll recover from this - but a gaff like this 1 week before Election Day would be a death-blow.

Default and now for something comepletly different

Boy, this is from deep left field...or would that be right field:

Also, Palin's biggest problem is she sounds earily like someone from Saturday Night Live. I keep thinking I'm hearing a skit about politics.

who is that guy?! and yeah, how DARE obamas people try to make mccain and his running mate look bad. what kind of argument is that? and then, he says obama shouldn't go after the pregnancy issue, but then bashes obamas mother?! i would define that as hypocrisy.
